Syrian army managed to kill up to 170 terrorist militants, including foreigners through a perfect ambush in Eastern Ghouta area which lies in Damascus countryside.

Al-Manar correspondent Jaafar Mhanna reported that the terrorists were trying to flee Eastern Ghouta, noting that they were trying to go either to Jordan or to Qalamoun.

“If they were trying to go to Jordan, then they were planning to join militants who have been preparing to attack Damascus,” Mhannad said.

“There is another scenario: the terrorists were trying to go to Qalamoun in a bid to back the militants in Yabroud against the Syrian army.”

Our correspondent also confirmed that there were foreigners among the militants killed.

There are documents that prove there are Saudi commanders among the militants, Mhanna said.
